A woman says she is 'living off 85p frozen dinners' for half the week as she reveals the impact the cost of living crisis is having on her and her husband. Rachel Dorricott has also found a cheaper way to get to work, even though it has doubled her commuting time to two hours.
It's all part of having to cut back on things Rachel, 26, and her husband had enjoyed around a year ago before soaring costs put the squeeze on their finances. Now, they have had to cut right back on food and their social live, MyLondon reports.
She said "We have been struggling to pay for things...I’m planning on boiling this summer without fans, living off 85p frozen dinners, taking cheaper routes on my commute to work even though it takes over an hour longer."
